I assume you can’t go to real court over something like this.

    John Wick.

    Or maybe the Ian McShane character person…

    Or the adjudicators that made JW an outcast in three (was it?).

    Yes, the adjudicators.

        Nicolas Cage’s The Wicker Man is the only John Wick spinoff worth your time.

        1. That movie is older than John Wick
        2. It’s a remake of an even older movie
        3. Which is based on an even older book
        4. The plot has NOTHING to do with hired killers or anything John Wick related

        Are you sure you didn’t mixed up the movie?

    Since you’re outsourcing this, the adjudicator is either the first contract killer involved, or the second contract killer you specifically hired to deal with that first contract killer.

    Gen Z really want everything handed to them. I remember the old times, there was no thing as a contract killer, if you hated your enemies, neighbor or the president, you had to kill them yourself. This generation doesn’t know how to do that kind of stuff by themselves anymore.

    There’s better answers here addressing the unlikeliness of contract killers existing in the sense of a freelancer available for hire to all the general public rather than someone trusted by peers in a criminal enterprise and also about the “contract” not really being a contract because it’s unenforceable but I think you could also draw the conclusion just by reasoning alone that if a contract killer in that Hollywood sense of the term existed, and breached their contract and you the client don’t have the personal connections or power to threaten that particular assassin’s life in response, there’s always just good old reputation at stake. I mean, it wouldn’t help you in your specific case if they’ve nicked off with the money and left your target very much alive but to have hired them in the first place would have required word of mouth in hopefully a pretty small community of people since you can’t exactly expect to find them on fiverr so you could make it know pretty quickly that this person doesn’t honour their contracts so their wet work career would be over pretty quick.

    Contract killers don’t really exist, and even if they did, it’s obviously not covered by the legal system, so, you do.

    Fun fact: In Austria, a contract killer has been found guilty of fraud this year because he didn’t kill his target.

    This is why you go with the assassins guild. They ensure it gets done, because their reputation is on the line.

    Just saying.
